Welcome to the 16th official event of the 2018 ATP Sudden Death League season:

Internazionali BNL D'Italia
Rome, Italy
Clay
13 - 20 May, 2018


RULES (Regular Masters 1000 Event):

1. Every day of the tournament that day's OOP will be posted. You pick one player who you think is going to win. It's a knock out-system: if the player you picked wins, you're through to the next round. If he loses, you're out.

2. Make 1 pick per day (for the last 4 days this will effectively be picking by round for the R16, QF, SF and Final). Day 1 will be a combined Sunday/Monday. Order of play for each day will be posted/linked to.

3. You can pick a player only ONCE. Obviously it's important to make smart choices in order to get far. If you have no picks remaining, you're eliminated from the competition.

4. You can't pick a player from a match that has started already.

5. You cannot advance to the next round via a walkover since it is hard to know exactly when someone announced they were pulling out HOWEVER this rule does not apply once you reach the semifinals

6. Since you can no longer win a match by a walkover it is highly advised that you make a back-up pick to your main pick - when listing your picks make sure you specify which is your back-up.

7. If the player you picked retires during the match, you're out. If he retires before the match, your back-up pick will be used.

8. If the opponent of the person you picked withdraws and is replaced by a lucky loser your original pick will stand unless you specifically change it. Usual caveat with this rule and the consideration of BU applies

9. NEVER edit your pick. If you want to change your pick, please quote your old pick and choose a new player. Edited posts will not be taken into consideration.

2018 LEAGUE FILE (Rome)

 
Day 1: Harrison

Sugita almost on 10 match losing streak. He's bad on slower surfaces, but horrendous on clay.
Bizarre how he made the QF at Barcelona last year.

Hall of Fame
Day 1: Djokovic (for now)
BU: Goffin

Another tough day 1, and Djokovic seems to be the best pick just because he owns Dolgopolov. If he can beat Nishikori in straight sets then he can definitely beat someone that hasn't won a match since the AO :eek:

I think your using him up too soon, he can make a semi-finals. :)
